Becoming: a Departure and a Beginning

Space-faring vampires and gravediggers colonize the stars while sea monsters, killer gynoids, spy androids, and mad cities inhabit the earth. Sometimes, a bug isn’t just a bug and the loudest voice might be the one you can’t hear. A hapless traveler encounters a devious monster in the backwoods; a primitive monster brings an urban nightmare to life; two mediums wrestle with their gifts and an earthbound deity haunts a distant future witch.

These and other works of fiction (a total of 31 pieces of flash fiction and short stories) have been compiled into an omnibus edition titled Becoming.

A 31 piece mashup of short stories and flash fiction. More info →

These stories are the culmination of over fifteen years of basically bumbling about in the literary world. I’ve had a great time learning, experimenting, and playing around with the craft of writing but it’s time for me to leave that all behind and take a more focused approach to the craft of writing.

That isn’t to say that I’ve learned all there is to know. In fact, I figure I’m only just starting to get into the nitty gritty of learning to write.

I won’t abandon short stories or even flash fiction but from now on, I’m putting more effort into writing (or I should say, learning to write) novels and novellas. You probably won’t see me posting fiction online as much as I used to… the ongoing current webserial (What the Bones Say) is an exception.

I this sense, Becoming represents a departure and a new beginning for me. Nothing drastic. Just a change in my state of mind, really. I hope this continues to happen as I learn and grow as a writer.
